My grandma is a legend when it comes to jello.
Everyone remembers her for her jello. She didn't learn to cook until she was married. Everything she made was simple and wholesome. She was amazingly organized and clean. A modern lady and an old fashioned mom whose table was always full and always ready for family.

Lemon Bars

LEMON BARS

1 C butter, softened
1/2 C sugar
2 C flour

6 eggs
1 C lemon juice
2 1/4 C sugar
1/2 C flour

Mix butter, sugar and flour to make a shortbread crust. Use a 15 in pan (if you like thicker crust use a 9x13 but you'll need to reduce the filling to about 2/3). Press crust into pan and bake 350 for about 15 minutes
Whisk other ingredients together and pour over baked crust. Bake another 15 minutes (more if you need to).
Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
